Kodak will highlight unmatched speed and versatility in inkjet production printing by running live demonstrations of the KodaK Prosper 7000 Turbo Press, the world’s fastest web-fed full-color inkjet press, at Hunkeler Innovationdays 2025 (February 24 to 27, Lucerne, Switzerland), booth P4 in hall 1. The show will be Prosper 7000 Turbo Press’s first appearance in Europe.
Kodak will showcase the Prosper 7000 Turbo Press printing with water-based Kodak Ektacolor Inks in a roll-to-roll configuration with an unwinder and a rewinder designed and manufactured by Kodak. The Prosper 7000 Turbo Press prints at speeds of up to 410 mpm. Its three print modes — Turbo, Performance and Quality — enable to easily fine-tune optimal speed and quality balance for each job. These capabilities make the Prosper 7000 Turbo Press an excellent solution for migrating larger direct mail, commercial, transactional, and book printing jobs from offset to digital.
Visitors to the Kodak booth will also have the opportunity to view a vast collection of print samples illustrating the high-quality and the variety of applications that can be produced with the Kodak Prosper Ultra 520 Press, powered by Kodak Ultrastream Technology, and the new Kodak Prosper Print Bar, which incorporates Kodak Prosper Plus Imprinting Systems.
The print bar can be customized to meet customer needs and can be easily integrated on existing conventional production lines: in one word you can turn your traditional press into a new integrated system, that has sustainable, digital and cost-effective features to answer the requests coming from the packaging market.
Kodak, in cooperation with partners Horizon International and Hunkeler, will also demonstrate the efficient processing of paper rolls printed on Prosper Presses into finished printed products. A saddle-stitched catalog will be produced on a Horizon iCE StitchLiner Mark V, and a Hunkeler paper processing line will handle a demanding direct mail application.
